Studies towards the synthesis of obtusenyne. Synthesis of the hexahydrooxonin nucleus
摘要:
The advanced intermediate (the 2,3,4,7,8,9-hexahydrooxonin) 3 for the synthesis of the Laurencia oxonane natural product, obtusenyne 1 was prepared in 8 steps from the previously reported lactone 4. The key transformations were the stereoselective enolate hydroxylation of the lactone 4 and a hydroxyl-directed intramolecular hydrosilation of the enol ether 12.

An enantioselective synthesis of the halogenated medium-ring ether natural product (+)-obtusenyne is reported which uses the ring expansion of a seven-membered ketene acetal by means of a Claisen rearrangement to construct the core nine-membered oxygen heterocycle. The trans substituents across the ether linkage were established by using a transition-metal-catalyzed intramolecular hydrosilation reaction
